Off the beaten track so perfect for those seeking a bit of peace and quiet. The hotel is run by staff that actually care about the customer experience a rare treat

From our first visit here we fell in love with the place. We came to view it as a possible wedding venue and left booking it. As soon as we arrived we were very warmly greeted by a lovely gentleman called Richard. Then got shown around by our now wedding coordinator Lynsey who was very welcoming and knows her stuff. A visit after this we came to view it with my parents and again Richard was on hand to very kindly unexpectedly show my parents around. Nothing is too much trouble here. Not to mention how stunning the grounds and venue are. We have just left from a brilliant festive afternoon tea with some of our family and can say we are very excited to have our big day here in February 2027. Whether it’s for a day visit in a stunning place, or an evening away or even a wedding, I highly reccomend to put this on your list.

We are a party of six and pre-booked a table for late Sunday afternoon food and drinks. The food was very good, the Sunday Dinner in particular was worthy of mention, generous portions of Roast Beef/ Turkey/ Ham, a very good selection of fresh vegetables and Yorkshire puddings. We found the gravy could have been thicker but it didn't spoil the meal...a very generous plate of food for a good price. The staff, young lady and man were both professional and the beer selection was adequate. Nothing at all to complain about and good value for money in the Lake District. It's well worth a try, especially for Sunday dinner.

The hotel is in a good location, just in the small town on Devon Lake. The room standard is 16 square meters, but it feels like it should be more than 20 square meters. Clean and hygienic. The service attitude is good, we arrived early, and the front desk gave the room without saying a word. The restaurant in the hotel is also very good and the dishes are delicious. Some local elderly people say that they have been eating in the restaurant for more than 20 years.

Traditional Lake District hotel. Location was perfect for wandering around Keswick. My room was warm and had a lovely view of snow capped hills. Tea and coffee making facilities were available. Bed was very comfortable and facilities in the room were clean. Decor in the hotel is traditional country style. Check in was quick, a few stairs to climb to my room. The lady who served breakfast was very cheerful and friendly, despite us arriving very close to service closing. An excellent breakfast was served. The car park is small but managed to park my car and was allowed to leave it there for a few hours after check out so I could explore Keswick. A comfortable one night stay. Thank you.

After entering with some in trepidation I was pleasantly greeted by a professional friendly gentleman who took my order and booking for dinner that night. I found a lovely corner to pitch up and settle down to enjoy my pint. Some times when you just try you are rewarded. And this is one such time. Feel very comfortable in the friendly, bright, clean and well run establishment. Fully recommend a visit. And if you can stay in the hotel or camp site next door then so much the better 👍🎊👍 Foods good too 😋

Just returned home after a 6 hour journey from hell but yet again another great stay at the Lodge in the Vale. Have been coming to the Lodge for 3 years roughly now and the hospitality as per usual was top class. Perfect location for whatever your reasoning is for visiting the Lakes, whether its to climb the hills, explore the Lakes and all its beautiful surroundings or like myself, a avid plane spotter wanting to climb the hills for the low flying aircraft (when the weather allows). Rooms are consistently clean and tidy, nothing is ever too much to ask for if you need anything extra or more off if you stay for 4/5 nights etc, you get offered a mini room service half way through your stay if you require anything doing (new towels/etc). Not a breakfast eating person but always get lunch in the cafe after a morning out & about and the food is always spot on, whether you have a lovely warm soup or a toasted Panini! Already looking forward to my next trip and to seeing the brilliant team at both the Lodge in the Vale and the sister pub just down the road The Kings Head (30 seconds in the car or 10 min walk away) where Peter & his team always look after you if you’re staying with the Lodge! 5 stars isn’t enough for these guys!
